Aotearoa went to see how Antogal proceeded with the work in the workshop, but Antogal was focused on the work and did not notice Aotearoa. I tried to speak up, but I decided to go back to the living room because my back was a craftsman's and I was disturbed.
"That, Mr. Sorta. Didn't you go to the workshop?
"No, I meant to...... I'm more serious than Antogal thought, I'm back softly to stay out of the way"
Aotearoa said so with a bitter laugh. I saw Antogal earlier and I used to remember Lougo yelling at me when he was seriously working.
"Uh, that's right. If you get in the way of the craftsman... you'll be scared"
Deena's words also bore a sense of reality. A thousand years ago, Deena was happy that Ethereum had come to Elf's country again, and she remembered having broken into it while working, but being condemned by Ethereum and the others together. Deena, who remembered that, looked at Ethereal Tai with jito eyes.
"Hmm? What's wrong?
Aotea remembered that she was angry, but she didn't remember being angry about Deena.
"No, it's nothing."
"Right."
Something was a definite reaction, but when pursued, Aeta stops talking there because that could be the tail of a tiger.
"Well, shall we sleep for tomorrow? Let's go back to the inn, we'll be ready tomorrow."
"Right."
Deena agrees with Ethereum's suggestion. And the two gently leave the workshop to return to the inn so as not to disturb Antogal. I left a message for Antogal on the table just in case.
Before the next day
As they entered Antogal's workshop, they heard lavish snoring from the workplace. There was a figure of Antogal sleeping with his head stuck in a pile of metal, snoring heavily.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa."
The sound was as if something was roaring from the bottom of the earth, and the birds had escaped from this perimeter with something.
"Hey."
Aotearoa speaks, but Antogal's snoring never subsides.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa."
"Hey, get up!
I try to shake my body abusively but there is no sign of it ever happening. By shaking his body, a pile of metal makes a noise of loose chatter. He looked like he was eating into his face, but he didn't seem too sleepy or in pain.
"Come on, get up!!
Aotearoa shouted in her ear, releasing a mild but intimidating threat to Antogal.
"Wow, hey, what!! What happened!?
Feeling intimidated, Antogal jumped in a hurry, running around the workplace in chaos.
"Hey, calm down!
When she returned near herself, Aotearoa grabbed Antogal's shoulder and made her stay on the spot.
"What, whoa, whoa... is that you? I just heard something big!
Antogal was still in a state of confusion, and seeing Ethereal's face did not see him calm.
"So calm down. That sound is my voice, I just shouted to wake you up"
I gave it to the shelf that I was bad and urged him to settle down in Antogal.
"Oh, oh, was that your voice? No, I don't think that's all..."
Antogal had sensed Ethereal intimidation, but he couldn't figure out exactly what it was.
"It's not your fault? Sounds more like you're ready for metal than that, huh?
Aotearoa confirms as he points to the mountain where Antogal was sticking his head in until just now.
"Whoa, good luck late. In the meantime, the dragon iron is ready, and I've tried to get some other metals ready."
With that said, it makes the metal in the box look ethereal.
Among them were ingots such as misrills and iron and copper.
"Hmm, I've got some metal on me, so that's gonna come out, too."
Aotearoa takes some metal out of the magic bag. Leave it in an empty space, but Antogal is rounding his eyes to its kind.
"Ko, this is"
To Antogal's surprise, Aotearoa releases one metal after another.
"Huh, something like this? Is there anything I can do for you with this?
They were in an amount far exceeding the amount of metal prepared by Antogal.
"It's not all the fuss in the role! I can't handle metal like this in this workshop. With this..."
Antogal looks excited and takes the metal in his hand.
"Is it such a good thing? I think I got most of it pretty normally."
They were difficult to come by now because of the decline in reserves due to changing times, and some metals were controlled by the State even if there were reserves.
"This is normal... who are you really? Was he a brave man a thousand years ago? I kind of believed it, but don't get any more authentic if they show you this."
There was just enough reality to make you believe that what Aotearoa put out was a person a thousand years ago.
"More than that, with this, is my sword going to be created?
"Of course! To sum up what I've heard from you, a knife is made from multiple metals. One is made up of dragon iron, but choosing all the other metals you can from this is a strength."
Of course, some combinations can do something that won't be a weapon, but that can be sifted to some extent by Antogal's experience. After that, look for one of the best matches in Tri & Error.
"I still have the ore to turn it into dragon iron, so even if I tried all the patterns, it would be enough to follow me."
Drowsiness had already disappeared from Antogal's face. What was done out loud has also already disappeared from my mind.
"All right, let's get started!
Aotearoa was also feeling more excited about Antogal than usual.
Deena was smiling at the two of them a little further away, but decided to go to the kitchen to do her part.
